Updating column on row update

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

This should be simple, but for some reason I'm not quite sure what the solution is.  I want to be able to update the value of a column for rows that have been updated.  More specifically, if a row is updated, I want it's modified_date column to be populated with the current time stamp.  I've looked at triggers and rules, and it looks like I'd need to create a function just to achieve this which seems incredibly clumsy and unnecessary.  Could someone enlighten me?

Thanks

Thom
